The Application Gallery features COMSOL Multiphysics® tutorial and demo app files pertinent to the electrical, structural, acoustics, fluid, heat, and chemical disciplines. You can use these examples as a starting point for your own simulation work by downloading the tutorial model or demo app file and its accompanying instructions.
Search for tutorials and apps relevant to your area of expertise via the Quick Search feature. Note that many of the examples featured here can also be accessed via the Application Libraries that are built into the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and available from the File menu.
This model solves the Testing Electromagnetic Analysis Methods (TEAM) problem 7, “Asymmetrical Conductor with a Hole”—a benchmark problem concerning the calculation of eddy currents and magnetic fields produced when an aluminum conductor is placed asymmetrically above a multi-turn coil ...

When electrical energy is converted into mechanical work in an electrical motor, the "wasted" energy that causes device heating is usually referred to as loss. The ratio of useful work to input energy, or the efficiency of the motor, is an important property for the overall energy ... Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Multiple tabs in the ribbon Geometry parts and parameterized geometries Parts and cumulative selections can be used to automatically set domain and boundary settings in the embedded model Adding or removing geometry parts with different geometrical ... Read More
Powder compaction is a popular manufacturing process not only in powder metallurgy, but also in the pharmaceutical industry. The Capped Drucker–Prager model is commonly used for simulating the compaction processes of pharmaceutical powders, where the material properties depend on the ... Read More
Perforates are plates with a distribution of small perforations or holes. They are used in muffler systems, sound absorbing panels, and in many other places as liners, where it is important to control attenuation precisely. As the perforations become smaller and smaller, viscous and ... Read More
Alkaline water electrolysis is a well-established industrial process for producing hydrogen gas. In the cell, hydrogen gas is formed at the cathode whereas oxygen gas is formed at the anode. The electrolyte is an aqueous liquid, and when the evolved gases form bubbles, the effective ... Read More
In a diode or a transistor, when a p-n junction is reverse-biased (the p-side is connected to a lower potential than the n-side), ideally, no current should flow. However, due to minority carriers (electrons in the p-side and holes in the n-side), a small current, known as the reverse ... Read More
UHF RFID tags are widely used for identifying and tracking animals. This model simulates a passive radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag for the UHF frequency range. With respect to the chip transponder’s complex impedance, a reflection coefficient is computed. This is done using an ... Read More
Quantum dots are nano- or microscale devices created by confining free electrons in a 3D semiconducting matrix. Those tiny islands or droplets of confined “free electrons” (those with no potential energy) present many interesting electronic properties. They are of potential importance ... Read More
This example demonstrates the modeling of a sandwiched composite blade made up of carbon–epoxy, glass–vinylester, and PVC foam materials. Three different methods are used to model the sandwich composite structure: Layerwise theory, Equivalent Single Layer (ESL) theory, and a ... Read More
